A BIT OHIISTORY
How C. W. Braasch Outwitted Burg
lars Eighteen Years Ago.
Eighteen years ago last Juno Bill
Braasch outwitted a gang of safe rob
bers and old timers who recall the In
cident remark that Rraasch's wit ,
which today Is as keen as any man's
on Norfolk avenue , was eighteen years
ago far too much for tbo men who at
tempted to rob his coal and grain of-
flee.
flee.It
It was on Thursday afternoon , Juno
20 , 1SS9 , that Braasch noticed some
suspicious characters hanging about
his ofllce. Braasch sized the gang up.
Then ho got busy.
Now Braasch had a handsome safe
which he had no desire to have In
jured and blown up. That evening ho
went homo carrying his books and
cash box.
Prompt to their appointment the ex
pected burglars came that night.
Braasch was not there to meet them
with a shot gun but on the handsome
new safe the burglars read this legend
on a placard : "This safe Is open. "
It Is recorded In the papers of the
time that the burglars effected an entrance -
trance Into the building through avln >
dow but that , though they rummaged
the ofllco through , they got nothing
worth carrying away. And the big
safe was not spoiled.
Bill Braasch were a quiet smile the
next day and people along Norfolk avenue
onue that June morning olghteei
years ago said that It would tak (
something a good deal smarter thai
an everyday burglar to get ahead o
Braasch.

TO OPEN MISSOURI RIVER.
Vlnjor McLaufjhlln Has Had a Chance
to Make Town at Ft. Randall.
Fort Randall , S. D. , July 1C. Editor
Norfolk Dally News : I would most
eapcctfnlly ask for a space In your
I'alnahlo paper for tbo following re-
narks In support of tbo necessity for
opening tbo Missouri river to navlga-
Ion. Tbo absence of river boats upon
ho Missouri for tbo paat sixteen years
ins been a great drawback to tbo sot-
lora , who are so far away from rail-
oada. One-half their products never
see markets. Now tbo government has
irdered that the river bo cleared of
uny obstructions with n view of per-
ulttlng Kansas City and St. Louis to
establish a boat lino. Formerly there
ivoro fourteen boats running from St.
Ixnils to nismark , N. D. , and further
nto Montana. It la almost shameful
o see the longest navigable river In
America abut off by railroads which
iiro of no service to people living on
be river. If tbo contemplated boats
nro put on there will be work In the
luo of transportation for all. This Is
11 cattle and grain section of South
Dakota all the way to Bismarck In
North Dakota. The old landings must
DO looked after from Yankton to
Pierre that boats may enter , load and
mload without Inconvenience or loss
of tlmo. The government snag boat
will open the river so that all boats
may with safety ply the Missouri.
In advance of tbo boat arrivals , I
have applications for a slto to build
elevators at Fort Randall but owing
to my having for sale the Fort Ran
dall lands comprising 327 acres , I
could not with justice to myself or
tbo would-be purchaser give my con
sent , I am also asked to sell my forty
acres for a towuslto , which I also
have refused , pending the sale of this
placu , which Is the paradise of South
Dakota. I only wish that some would-
be purchaser would come to Fort Ran
dall to ace the place In all its splendor.
There never was a failure In crops of
any kind. Old ago prompts mo to sell
my homo hero with all Improvements ,
consisting of two dwelling houses
erected by the government costing
over ? 12,000 ; artesian well , barn , cat
tie shed , church building of cut stone
103x50 ; timber for all purposes for the
next 200 years ; \\ltb a parade or drill
ground of sixteen acres planted in
blue grass which fronts my door , sur-
lounded with trees planted one rod
apart ; with a carriage drive outside
this square. The road Is macadam
ized. All of this 1 will sell for tbo
small sum of J17.000 , $11,000 down ,
tbo balance on three or live years'
time. There Is no Incumbrance on the
place. John McLaughlln ,

BLACK HILLS PEOPLE HAPPY
Think They Have Succeeded In Chang
ing the Proposed Coast Road From
the Lander Line to One Via the
Northern Hills.
Dinaha , July 19. Advices from
South Dakota , verified to some extent
y statements given out in Omaha
lirlng the past two weeks , state that
ho Northwostorn's much talked of
east line Is soon to become n thing
if fact.
Marvin Hughltt , president of the
oad , Is In that country now , and It Is
aid that ho Is there to look over the
ontcmplated extension.
The Northwestern's transcontinental
Ino will bo built from Hello Fonrcho ,
. D. , along the Plerro-Rapld City ox-
enslon , and will proceed directly
lorth 100 miles. Surveying has al-
eady started on this section.
From the boundary line between
North and South Dakota It Is thought
hat the road will bo constructed duo
> vest through Montana , but tbo details
it the route are yet unknown. The
radlng north of Hello Fourcho will
: ommenco at once.
There was a red Jiot race between
bo Northwestern and the Milwaukee
.o get their lines Into Rapid City , and
ho victory of the Hughltt road Is
bought to have encouraged It to try
o bo first to the coast.
It was feared by the South Dako-
ans for a time that tbo Casper branch
.voiild . be used as the main line to the
coast , but President Hughltt's pros
nee In and around Belle Fourcho has
it-ought out reliable Information to
bo contrary.
The first contract for the grading
from Belle Fourcho north and thence
oward tbo coast will bo let within a
couple of weeks.
